About The Author
In 2022 Michael D. Park was recognized as a Kajukenbo Grand Master by the Board of Advisors for the original Kajukenbo Self-Defense Institute, Inc. of Hawaii and World-Wide. That same year he was named the successor to SGM James Kaleohano Roberts, the last living black belt in Hawaii promoted by the founder Sijo Adriano Emperado.

In 2017 he was inducted in the Kenpo International Hall of Fame and promoted to 10th degree Judan (Professor) as an associate of the Tracy Kenpo Organization.
